Hope you guys try it and like it! :flowerforyou:

Frozen diced watermelon blended with banana and some lemon or lime juice. MFP. Bejeweled. C25K. My crazy jungle of a garden. Foyle's War on Netflix.

Congrats!! That is such an accomplishment. I'm doing week 5 right now, with day 3 on Friday. I'm also alternating between confidence and terror. I can't wait to join your ranks. :D Keep up the awesome work!

Rooting halfheartedly for England (but you know if they do well I'll be thrilled). Picking Ireland for my underdog. Realistically I think it'll be Germany & Spain in the final. And after the Russian fans' behavior yesterday I hope Russia goes home after the group stage. Shameful.

I gained, boo. Up 0.6 lbs from last week. I'd like to blame TOM but I think it was more likely some poor eating choices. Oh well, here's to next week's weigh in! :drinker:

Simply incredible. You look fantastic, and you are seriously inspirational. Congrats!

My current playlist: "One Foot" Fun. (warm up) "Impossible" Anberlin "Open Road Song" Eve 6 "Stronger" Kelly Clarkson "U + UR Hand" Pink (teehee!) "The Anthem" Pitbull feat. Lil John "You Make Me Feel..." Cobra Starship feat. Sabi "#1 Nite" Cobra Starship "Sweetness" Jimmy Eat World (cool down) I'm a pretty slow runner so…

Yay! Congrats! Be sure to get on here and tell us how the race goes. :D

I start week 5 of the program today, and this is my 4th (or 5th? it's hard to keep track...) time trying to do this. The previous times I never made it past week 2. This time I forced myself to go just one day longer than I had the last time; after that, I felt like I just earned a freaking trophy, and so far that has been…

That is so fantastic! Congratulations to you. You're an inspiration; I'm still working up to running anything longer than 5 minutes.

Fantastic! My mom didn't go to college after high school, but she went back to community college when she was 36. She liked it so much, she now has a Ph.D. and is a tenure-track professor. You never know where you might end up! :drinker: As for me, I am currently AB(mf'n)D in comparative literature. Starting to get some…

There you go! And you've made some great progress-- can't wait to see you reach your goals! EDIT: dang, the pic is huge. :huh:

I am not vegetarian but my best friend from college is; living with her, I learned to cook a lot of different vegetarian dishes, and I still try to cook vegetarian at least once or twice a week. My favorite lentil recipe: http://www.kayotic.nl/blog/curried-lentil-soup (I use one sweet potato and one russet potato,…

I have not tried many powders... partially because I found Bluebonnet's natural original flavor one, loved it, and have been using it for a month or so now. No added sugar! Yay! But still tastes good (it's a vanilla-ish flavor, though I think they also make a stronger vanilla and also a chocolate) and I don't find it to be…

First of all, don't get discouraged! Keep working away at this. I've lost and gained the same 2 lbs for a couple weeks now, although this week seems to have ended that cycle. So keep on keepin' on! Secondly, I creeped your diary and noticed a couple things: a) you don't seem to be logging your food very often, which might…

Thank you!

I lost at least 3.2 lbs! (At least, 3.2lbs is what I'm recording here.) I am super stoked because this means I am OUT of the 200s. Eff yeah! Congrats to everyone else on your amazing losses. Keep it up, folks!

Great job starting, guys! I am currently on week 4, and I am continually terrified of each day's run, and then continually astounded that I can (and do!) complete it. So keep at it! You'll be amazed at what you can do.

I study comic books for a living. No, seriously.

"If I had a soccer ball, would you kick it with me?" (Ok, so this one was from 15 years ago, when "kick it" was what the kids were saying. And some kid really did say that to me.) "Is your name Gillette? Cuz you look like the best a man can get."

You can make yogurt in a Crock Pot! I do this once every two weeks or so, and then strain the yogurt through a colander and paper towels in the fridge to make my own Greek yogurt. It's definitely cheaper than buying a tub of Greek yogurt every week.…

I'd love to join. Starting at 199.2 lbs, 5'6". Let's do this!

Amazing work! You look fantastic!

Absolutely loving this thread, people. :D

Not a silly question! Check out this site: http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_3/181.shtml You'll start with week 1, alternating intervals of 60 seconds jogging and 90 seconds walking. Good luck!

Hm. 1 for "depends." (I always hated multiple choice tests. I contain multitudes, etc.) I hate hot oatmeal. I always tried to like it and it never worked. But I LOVE overnight oats / refrigerator oatmeal / oatmeal jars / summer porridge / whatever the frack you call it. This stuff:…

I love making a stir fry with whatever veggies I have lying around (last night: onion, bell pepper, sugar snap peas, broccoli, and asparagus), and tofu or chicken. Cook in a big pan with a little sesame oil, and then mix some minced garlic, sesame oil, soy sauce and honey (I also add a squirt of sriracha [hot sauce] for a…

Totally loving this thread! All these animals make my heart (and my face!) smile. Here are my fuzzy babies, Tikka the Wondercat (black) and Alfred Hitchcat (orange): Hobbies include watching kitty TV: Acting like a princess: And lying around the house like some kind of catskin rug: I also have an adorable cornsnake,…

Thanks guys! I love Rippetoe's explanations.
